It sometimes takes blood, sweat and tears to hash out an agreement but finally managed to get these ne’er-do-wells to sign on the dotted line at last weeks Brighton Music Conference … in blood! 😉 Very much looking forward to working with the Jack Said What crew -

PS. No artists / label owners were harmed in the taking of this photo and their Samoan Attorney (ok Brightonian lawyer Dean Marsh) was in attendance at all times to see fair play ( )

Earlier this month Rejected welcomed Greek DJ/Producer and our writer Stelios Vassiloudis to the family with his superb label debut. 'Ricochet'.

Made on the move, as he trekked back and forth between Europe and South East Asia, both tracks share a sense of raw dynamism that is reflective of the touring and immediacy of Stelios' mobile production setup. Less is more as they say, and this is never more pertinent than in the creation and sound of both 'Keluar' and 'Thick And Thin'.

Keluar, or 'Get Out' in Malay, forcefully issues its order via its thumping kick and rubbery bassline. Spring-loaded percussion snaps and fires as Stelios ushers in waves of synth and wails of vocal, before hurling us back into its heads-down groove.

On the flip (in the video), 'Thick And Thin' teases us. Living up to its name via its stocky, thundering opening before blooming via its rippling atmospherics and chopped vocal, to become a beautiful deep house tool.

John Truelove will be part of the panel on Sampling at this year´s Brighton Music Conference (24th till 26th May 2023). The panel is on Thursday 25th May at 14:30.

Sampling paved the foundations of dance music – but what’s the difference between a great sample and a blatant rip-off? In recent years, there’s been an upsurge of popular re-edits, covers of classics, and reworks of well known hits, and this panel will spell out how to do it properly.

From the letter of the law to the rights and wrongs of unauthorized bootlegs, the panel of law experts, artists and DJs will discuss all this and more.
